The Netherworld, the Yan Luo Territory!
Zhen Yuanzi had obeyed Hongjun's command, carrying the Creation Jade Tablet into the Nine Serenities Netherworld to search for the dispute and seize the so-called treasure!
But at that time, there had been no dispute in the Netherworld at all. Afraid of delaying Hongjun's important task, Zhen Yuanzi had promptly left the Netherworld and begun searching throughout the Yan Luo Territory.
The Nine Serenities Netherworld was merely a collective term. The entire Yan Luo Territory could be called the Nine Serenities Netherworld. Yama Hall controlled the Yan Luo Territory, which contained one hundred and eight cities, each commanded by a Ghost King!
Zhen Yuanzi had traveled through city after city, but still had not found the so-called great dispute!
One day, a ghost city!
The Ghost King stood atop the city wall, with a group of evil ghosts behind him! Yet no one dared leave the city!
Outside the city stood only one person! He wore a wide black robe and held a gigantic staff in his hand!
"Don't come any closer! There's nothing here that you want!" the Ghost King shouted from the city wall.
"Open the gates and let me search!" the broad-robed figure rasped.
His voice seemed to possess an immense magnetic force.
"Attack!" the Ghost King ordered a group of evil ghosts.
"Ah!"
"Wuu!"
"Awooo!"
...The evil ghosts charged straight at the black-robed figure, howling like ghosts and wolves.
The black-robed figure extended his staff and pointed it ahead. A ring of white light suddenly blossomed from the tip.
Wherever the halo passed, the evil ghosts were utterly annihilated. The Ghost King atop the wall was horrified.
"Disaster! Disaster!" the Ghost King cried in terror.
"Hmph!" The black-robed figure snorted coldly and pointed his staff at the city gates.
"Boom!"
